Me too. A personal history of sexual assault.
This movement is getting to me. In a good yet triggering way. I figured as part of my healing and getting trauma worked through, I could use this vehicle.
When I was 14 I was raped by a “friend.” He lured me to his house and forced me to preform oral sex on him. I had never been touched like that before. I distinctly remember saying no. I walked home that warm spring day dry heaving and crying. This was one of the worst things to ever happen to me.
When I was 15/16 I was walking home with a friend from school and a creepy man tried to lure us into his red car making sexual advances.
Another time I was walking home with the same friend at about 17 years old a younger man came up to us and started groping me and my friend on our butts. When I stood up for myself he punched me in the face 3 times and broke my nose.
When I was 16 I worked at Wendy’s. A manager took his fumbly fingers and took off a name tag I was wearing forcefully which was on my breast. I reported the incident. He then told me to kill myself. Wendy’s eventually fired him for OTHER shit though.
When I rode the subway in nyc I was groped and felt up more times than I can count. Hundreds of times actually. One time a man put his erect penis in my face on the subway.
Sometime in 2013 my boyfriend at the time punched me repeatedly during sex in the thigh with no warning and no consent. He played it off to our friends that it was “kinky” but I did NOT want that. This same man there after rose his fist to hit me several other times.
When I was 29 a man who I thought I trusted began masturbating in front of me while I was having a hyperventilating panic attack.
A few months after the previous story a man nearly choked me unconscious during sex which I also did not consent to.
How many fucking times have I had to say NO more than once.
